Self-generated whisker movements drive state-dependent sensory input to developing barrel cortex

pre-print
Brain development is an activity-dependent process. One persistent debate concerns the importance of sensory feedback from self-generated movements as a source of neural activity in developing sensorimotor cortex. Because previous research has demonstrated that behavioral state moderates the relationship between movement and cortical activity, inattention to behavioral state leads to erroneous assessments of their relationship. Thus, we recorded neural activity in the barrel cortex in 5-day-old
